opening :: underground city
As announced to a circle of people LABfactory enacts the start of the project underground city 21 - from the very beginning
The real start was different ... but what does real mean ...
as reality is a virtual construction of our minds.
A project not just taking up the topics of underground societies and social structures, but also practically establishing a platform
under the surface of current mainstream society.
The platform is actually a fractal were the artistic and discursive particular projects are mirroring the over-all-project as total by,
still independent and self-consistent, being a part of it.
Every physical space enacting and producing an artwork or other action in these terms becomes a (temporary) gate to UC21 - underground city 21.
The artists becoming citizens by acting in the frame of UC21.
The first honorary citizens of UC21 entering the world of silence with their ideas, skills and action, entering through the gate of LABfactory are:
Erik Alalooga and Mai Sööt (Tallinn / Estonia)
>Kinematic Mysterium< start at 20:30
Erik Alaloogas approach is to establish a sculpture of enacted objects and social structure built up by the audience in their actions and decisions to visualize the trigger-situations.
The project visualizes the mechanisms and systems reglemented and controlled through cipertexts and creats a sculpture out of the act of decoding.
>kinematic mysterium< is working with a transdisciplinary approach to sculpture as a imaginary object raised and realized by a number of people in co-operation with the artists concidering the action of creation as the only way of perception.
